| What is the best 2A3 SET Amplifier? Whammerdyne hasn’t been mentioned yet and is one of the best 2A3 SETs I’ve heard. I was just going to post that my Whammerdyne DGA-1 uses ultrawide bandwidth output transformers. I think it sounds glorious. Running NOS tubes. | |
| Volti v Charney v Rethm Not intending to throw a monkey wrench into your post, but you may also wish to consider Pure Audio Project Quintet15 with the center horn driver and four 15" woofers per side. I have the Trio (two 15" drivers per side) with horns, which may work ... | |
| OCD mickey website and negativity. I've learned many things from him but I don't know why his gear that he represents seems lacklustre ... There are many outstanding so-called higher end audio gear that's out there and he doesn't seem to carry any of it. I too have learned fro... | |

| Newer Blues Artists or Recordings For some electric/swing/jump blues check out Big Joe and the Dynaflows ... "Layin' in the Alley", "I'm Still Swingin'". And for some traditional/Delta/acoustic blues, check out Rory Block. IMO, the best acoustic blues guitar player alive, and wit... | |
| Newer Blues Artists or Recordings For some Chicago-style electric blues/jump blues with terrific slide guitar check out: Lil' Ed and the Blues Imperials, "Roughousin'", "What You See is What You Get", "Jump Start". A great band to see live as well. I've seen them three times and... | |
| Gain and level controls on an amplifier-a good thing? I think there is nothing wrong with having a volume control, as long the circuit is properly designed.

| 2a3 ? Loving my Whammerdyne DGA1 amp pushing out just over 4 watts per side, with ultra wide bandwidth transformers (14 Hz - 50k Hz +/- 3 dB). If you are near Atlanta, GA, you are welcome to stop by for a listen. | |
| Suggestios for Atlanta area brick and mortar Contact Mike Powell at 11stereo.com. He carries Playback Designs gear. | |
| Would you buy a pair of speakers by just looking at the measured freq. response? No more than I'd purchase a piece of art based on its written description. | |
| Extract vocals or instruments from tracks with AI! Awesome! I would like to run thru all of my many Keith Jarrett recordings and extract all of his distracting whining and moaning. It'd be worth it just for those to me. | |
| Your greatest high end audio purchase!!! It’s a tie for me: My PAP Trio15 Horn1 speakers with my Whammerdyne DGA1 amp (4.3 glorious 2A3 watts of sonic beauty). |
